Healthier Together - FM Conway Mental Wellbeing Strategy

Goal 4: Combatting stigma A culture of care and trust is important in our journey to a mentally healthy business as we understand that all people must feel confident to discuss their concerns without fear of discrimination. There are now many great role models promoting mental wellbeing and we would like to build on this good work to ensure that our people understand that FM Conway is a safe environment.

We will achieve this by:

• Inviting people with a personal experience of recovery and management of a mental health condition to share their story in the workplace

• Encouraging senior leaders and managers to speak openly about mental wellbeing in the workplace by actively endorsing and participating in activities and events aimed at reducing stigma

• Promoting zero tolerance for discrimination against employees who have a mental health condition

• Establishing a track record of supporting employees with mental health conditions to stay at or return to work, by providing reasonable adjustments

• Providing information resources (websites, flyers and booklets) and training which challenges inaccurate stereotypes about suicide and mental health conditions

• Promoting a range of internal and external support options, including but not limited to, EAP, Mates in Mind Support Service, and Construction Line
